Healthcare organizations are dealing with issues such as reducing costs and bolstering productivity when they intend to enhance patient care. Over the past few years the way healthcare has been delivered by providers has been changing drastically to enhance patient-provider relationships. Increasing access to social media and mobile technologies has also changed the way patients receive healthcare from providers.
Why must you transform your healthcare enterprise to become data driven?
Let’s go over how health care was provided in the past – when you get sick, you visit the doctor and he/she prescribes medication and you use the medicine for a few days. It’s okay if you recover, otherwise you visit the doctor again and another medicine is prescribed and used. Look at the suffering you go through and how lousy and uncomfortable the process is.
Now, with data analytics your doctor can provide you with personalized treatment with an analysis of your health history and other mitigating factors. You receive the right treatment at the earliest possibility without the lousy procedures.
To deliver personalized healthcare, organizations in the U.S. are transforming themselves to become data-driven with data analytics. It is a patient centric and value-based approach that delivers enhanced healthcare. Organizations must know the value of their data and consider it an asset to make their services more patient-centric. Healthcare providers must become data driven to survive in the industry.
